Terminate a User session in the Portal

Hello,
is it possible to terminate a user session.
I want to delete a user, but I get the following error log:
- user delete failed
- Cannot lock at least one of the 4 locks for the owner
What is necessary to perform, before I am able to delete the user?
Thanks for your help!
Best regards,
Michael

Michael,
I think there is a distinction between deleting a user, and a user session. If you want to delete a users session, object locks must be cleared first. Users, as you know are deleted on UME Admin. On NW2004s the UME Admin is now called Identity Management.

Terminate an User Session.

I am trying to terminate a User Session that is several months old. I have tried searching SDN and have not found anything that applies or works. I have also tried using SM04, SM50, and also SM66 to cancel the process, but have been unsuccessful in my attempts. The other problem I have encountered when canceling the process is that a new process is started, going from 2 processes to now 4. We do not have a Basis person as well, and it's been learn as you go and using whatever information I can find. I am using version 4.7. Thanks in advance. If this is not in the correct forum, I ask the moderators to move this post to the appropriate forum as well. I apologize if I have not been more active in the forums, but due to the economy and downsizing I am the only remaining SAP person here and don't have much time to use the forum as in the past.

Hmmm... interesting...
My battle-plan would be to use Sm19 to activate a dynamic filter on the user for all events (particularly system and RFC calls and logins). You can do this even if the log is inactive (RZ11 -> rsau/enable ) but the filter will be kicked out again when you restart the system.
From there follow the procedure described in SAP Note 495911 to find out what is going on at runtime in the developer trace.
To lean out the window...:-) I suspect that it is an external server program which is still running and is buggy to process something. Possibly the GUID function is not performing an existance check and then re-creating the session from the operating system and attempting to process previous session related data again but the program ID for the data which isn't there. Consider yourself lucky that it is not blocking all workprocesses...
If my guess is correct and there is nothing obvious in ST22, then in transaction SMGW there are also "expert" tracing options to track this down, but be carefull of which one you turn on in a production system. Via the menu you can find them. Search for the option "external security --> logging". It is not very intuitive... The option "Trace up" and "Trace down" is certainly wrong as it will increase the dev trace for all users without telling you which level it is on. (sorry, posting from memory).
Cheers,
Julius
ps: Before using transaction SMGW with "basis" type authorizations, you must read the documentation on the functions!

How we Can find out How many Users Logon into the Portal those users Names.

Hi Friends
I have one doubt in Portal,
How we can find how many Users Logon into the Portal and how we can find that users Names in Portal.
Regards
Vijay Kalluri

Hello Vijay,
If you are at all interested in a 3rd party application to make your life a bit easier getting stats on your users, you could check out Click Stream by Sweetlets.
Click Stream uses the Usermanagement (UME) API to get more information about the user, groups, roles, LDAP attributes etc. and offers you the ability to filter this information in nearly any report at the click of a button.
Click Stream also uses the PCD API to get information about the pages your users are visiting too.
In the very near future Click Stream will also have iView recording to monitor iViews, telling which iViews have been clicked, etc.
Here are some reviews on the SAP EcoHub from people who have used it: http://ecohub.sdn.sap.com/irj/ecohub/solutions/clickstream
Please just let me know if you have any question or if you are open to test drive Click Stream. We will certainly help as best as we can.
Good luck.

DRM-61026: Unable to create user session for the following reason: Login failed. Invalid user name or password.

All Im very new to Oracle DRM and Im trying to get the app setup on Windows server running SQL Server 2008. When I try to login to the Web Client I keep getting this error.
DRM-61026: Unable to create user session for the following reason: Login failed. Invalid user name or password.
Can you please help

This might be due to The 'Oracle Instance' path may not have been set to a path relative to the 'CSS Bridge Host' (i.e. the Foundation Services machine) on the Configuration > Host Machines > CSS > General tab of the DRM Configuration Utility.
if this is the case then
1. Open the DRM Configuration Console.
2. Go to the Configuration > Host Machines > CSS > General tab of the DRM Configuration Utility.
3. Ensure that the path in 'Oracle Instance' has been set relative to the 'CSS Bridge Host' (i.e. the Foundation Services machine defined in 'CSS Bridge Host').
4. If corrections are made to 'Oracle Instance' then restart the DRM services to pick up the change.
Thanks,

Sharepoint portal goes down Whenever a specific user logs into the portal

hi All,
Sharepoint portal goes down Whenever a specific user logs into the portal
When a specific user logs into the portal , the iis goes down and no one able to access the portal.
once we reset iis then portal works fine .Please help us to identify the root cause for this issue.

What is the error message it throws for everyone after that user user logged into the site. Did you encountered the same behavior for the other web application in the same farm as well?
It would be worth to check health of that particular application pool and the account used for it during the time you face the issue.

Maximum number of sessions in the portal

Hi,
Please, do you know the maximum number of sessions that a particular user can open in the portal 7 ?
and it´s posible to limit the number of sessions of a user
thanks in advance.

carlos,
you can set a maximum session limit for each web module. so, if you for example want to limit the number of sessions in your portal, you could do it for the Web Module "irj"
Use NWA and navigate to Configuration / Application Module

Losing user session using the AutoLoginBacking portlet

I have a need to use a cookie based login within my portal. I am using the AutoLoginBacking
portlet that is located in the tutorial.portal samples. My portal contains a
Main Book with a page (that contains the AutoLoginBacking.portlet) and two nested
books within the Main Book (one book contains 1 page, the other book contains
4 pages in a "tabbed" fashion)
I have noticed that this AutoLoginBacking Login portlet appears to be losing the
session when I move to the book containing the 4 pages within my bea portal.
This nested book contains pageflow portlets. When I traverse to page 1 of this
book, the login session appears to work fine, but when I traverse to page 4, I
seem to loose the session.
The way I see this behavior occuring is I grab the user name and place it on the
page...only on page 1 does it appear, on page 4, it appears as null and my AutoLoginBacking
portlet reverts from Logout to Login
Could this be do to the fact that the login uses a backing file instead of it
being a PageFlow portlet like the LoginController? I've read some documentation
on the bea site: http://dev2dev.bea.com/products/wlworkshop81/articles/pg_flows.jsp
that states, "Forwarding/redirecting to a nested page flow, or raising any action
on it, causes nesting to occur. The original page flow is pushed onto the "nesting
stack" until the nested page flow raises a return action, using the return-action
attribute on @jpf:forward. "
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
Thanks for your help.

How to force the end of an user session when the browser is closed?

Hi,
When the user close the browser, the portal session remains. If the user open a new browser window, we ill be back to the portal without the need of a new Login. Is there any way to force a new login in this situation. A similar problem happens also when there is a reboot in the application server. After the reboot, all users can connect to the App Server without the necessity to login.
Is ther any way to avoid this kind of behavior?
Thanks.

Ok... Its as i thought... unfortunatly...
Gonna mark your latest post again as possible solution, just in case someone comes with any sort of out of the box thing...
Thx for your help Kglad

EP + BW: Problems with user mapping in the portal

Hi,
I'm trying to connect the portal with the BW by using the report RSPOR_SETUP which is a step-by-step guide. The steps #1 - #11 seems to be ok but my problem is the 12th step, the user mapping/allocation maintenance in the portal.
There is an error emerging (in BW): System failure during call of function module RSWR_RFC_SERVICE_TEST (System failure indicates normally an authentication problem between ABAP and Java)
Another error is emerging by testing the connection in the portal. (System administration u2013 system configuration u2013 system landscape u2013 connection test: the first connection, the SAP Web-AS connection is ok but the second, connection test for connector, is not working.
Especially the connection to the backend system with the defined connector is not working. The output is: u201CConnection failure. Check that single sign on is correct configured.
On step 12 of the step-by-step guide I have to select a user in the portal, relate him to a system alias und maintain his technical username and password for the BW. I think here is the problem. Iu2019m able to select and save a system alias for the user, but Iu2019m not able to save his technical username and password. There is another error emerging (in the portal): u201CVerification of user mapping data for system SAP_BW failed, check credentials for errorsu201D, so Iu2019m not able to save the username and password.
I think thats the my problem. the log file confirms that: "Did not find any existing logon data for principal...." & "No user mapping data available for principal...."
I hope my problem description is understandable.
Any ideas how I can solve the credentials problem to save the username and the password?
Thanks in advance.

I could deploy some of the usage types, but there is an error regarding the BI-REPPLAN package. I think it's one of the very last errors that stands between me and a working EP - BI connection. There is a problem with the version. Could you check the log details, to find out more?
Thank you.

Number of user sessions in the Application Server for a config entry

Hi All
I am using 10g AS, with 9i DB.
My requirement is that -
i need to find the total number of users of the application in any moment, and to
display that information to the users. say, config=abc, super users need to find all
those who are using the link from the application itself.
I can see that information from the 10 g Enterprise Manager -> Forms -> User Sessions.
But is there any means of transfering that information to forms.
Can this be done by using PJC's ?
Please post your solutions/suggestions
Thanks in Advance

Kicking a user out of the portal if a User Info Setting is not populated?

That's what we want to do - we have a bit set in a User Info Setting by a custom profiling process. Users are redirected back to the Login screen of the portal when they successfully complete the process and the bit gets set to a certain value. This is kicked off in our OnAfterLogin (Login PEI). Well, if a user just goes up to the address bar in the browser and deletes up to "server.pt", they can get to the portal without this custom process being completed - they can circumvent it, because they technically have already logged in. The problem is that if they don'tcomplete that process, many portlets will not work because they are dependent on data gathered and set as a result of successful completion.
So, we need to somehow check globally if a certain User Info Setting is populated, and if it is not, log the user out. We know the URL/AS to redirect to, but I don't see a PEI in which a redirect is returned other than those in the Login PEI and Directory Actions PEI. I was hoping the IPageActions interface might help... So, I'm guessing a PEI is not the answer. What would be the best way to approach this?
Thanks,
SarahCox Enterprises

How about having your header or footer portlets check for you?
Or when you setup a user, only give them access to one portlet. The portlet would allow them to update their information, then give them access to the remaining features of the site.
just a couple of quick ideas.

Actually above code is working in our local server but when i am trying on client database it is not working. only difference is we have SQL Server 2000 & client database is on SQL server 2005.
Hope some body will guess what is the problem,
